I am a Chowhound reading, Zagat eschewing foodie. If you know that expensive is not always good, and like a combination of local haunts and some tourist spots (we are after all tourists), then this is the list for you.

Here are my top picks for the food savvy visitor conveniently mapped out on Google Maps. I selected restaurants that were convenient to tourist attractions, and serve food that you won't find elsewhere.

Purchase Before you Visit BostonI highly recommend this street map of Boston and Cambridge which will come in handy as you explore the city. I used this when I first moved to Boston. Others are fun reads to get yourself into the spirit of bean town!

Hi Esteban, Neptune Oyster has great lobster rolls. They do both a hot roll as well as the more traditional cold lobster roll. Though, I imagine good lobster rolls are better had at lobster shacks! ... I haven't spent that much time out on the New England coast so I haven't found particular favorites yet.

Excellent if slightly upscale lobster rolls can be had at B&G oysters in the South End. Also Jasper White's Summer shack does a fine job. As has been previously stated, the coastal shacks do best particularly in maine.
